• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I`m just kidding you know, I`ve read it all, but modern science is out-dated, it`s too cynical and focuses on exploiting nature and people, I`ve looked past it the last years and you know also, they aren`t really interested in what they`re doing because they`re always wrong also
Ha det. Din tillit til din uvitenhet er uklok.

I don`t really think you`re supposed to take it literally, people just wrote alot of texts (the bible), it`s a little like buddhists taking it literally that they`ll get eternal life

The evidence is that the Old Testament is consistently accurate in its recording of names, titles etc of both it's and foreign kings. That a series of authors wrote a series of books that show a common theme together with the problem for sceptics of fulfilled prophecy means that claims that it is ' just a lot of texts' need some evidence to support such acclaim.

If you want guidance in your life seek God. If you feel lost, sad, unhappy, worried, anxious seek Jesus, He will help. I recommend reading the gospels.

God did make the stars (as well as everything else in the universe), but He intended them to be a witness to His power and glory, not as a means to guide us or foretell the future.

"Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spirits or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you," (Deu 18:10-14)

God says horoscopes are evil so they are. They might look innocent at first, so was Adam and Eve eating the apple of the tree of knowledge of good and evil and look what happened.

They haven`t helped me yet even though I pray everyday almost ;(

God is not a genie, rub the lamp and he appears!

You are intelligent use that intelligence to prove whether there is or is not a God.

As a fluent English speaker try coldcasechristianity or reasonablecfaith.
